"When El Elyon gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of men, he fixed the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God. For Yahweh's portion is his people, Jacob his allotted inheritance."

well I am just giving you the real history
...Just leaving out the genocidal bits and stealing land from those already settled there parts.
Ok I just told you that they came by the land within legal terms to begin with. The folks they found living there upon returning refused to recognize the old rights. I am not even taking sides here just putting out the history. I dont expect you to know all this, but if you look into it you will find that many of the folks living in that land upon the return were hebrew related....Amon, Edom ect. The Philistines had no claim, they were outsiders that took some of the land by force to begin with. They even ended up subjugating the hebrews for some time.

Deuteronomy 32:8
Jacob was the grandson of Abraham. When Jacob and his family traveled to Egypt, they had to go through his brother Easu's land. Esau, even though betrayed by Jacob, gave him tents, food, fresh water and skins, and livestock, because they had nothing!

What hype are you talking about? I don't understand.
So me saying stuff that the Hebrews/Yahweh did is not the "real history"? Are you saying they didn't really do those things?
His actions in the bible speak for themselves, no need for me to "hype" anything.

No no no.
God was leading the Israelites to the "Promise Land" of milk and honey. They didn't even know where they were going. They wandered the desert for 40 years, waiting for God to show them the Promise Land.
They weren't reclaiming land, they were looking for a new place to live, after Egypt.

When Jacob and his family arrived in Egypt, they were in a food line. Joseph, the youngest brother sold into slavery by his brothers, took pity on them, and forgave them.
Jacob was the first born son of Yahweh. There was no gift of land given to Jacob by Yahweh. He only had the land that he conned his brother out of, that went to waste from famine. Which is why he went to Egypt.
Yahweh may have promised Jacob's descendants stuff, but Yahweh wasn't the Hebrew God before Jacob.

: Yahweh most certainly was the god of the hebrews before jacob. Yahweh even told Moses that he was the God of Abraham. Issac and Jacob. The birth right to the land was passed down throught all of these and was then given to Josephs oldest son.....while Joe was visor of Egypt living in Egypt.
Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High,
Deut. 32:26
I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men:
27 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the Lord hath not done all this.
4 And I gave unto Isaac Jacob and Esau: and I gave unto Esau mount Seir, to possess it; but Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.
32 And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for an hundred pieces of silver: and it became the inheritance of the children of Joseph.

Yahweh didn't give Jacob any land.

According to the Graf-Wellhausen Source Critical Method for the Pentateuch, the J writer (the writer with the southern Judaen Hebronite accent) used YHWH to refer to the clan god of Yisro'el and the P writer (with the Babylonian paleoHebrew accent used by the writer of the Book of the prophet Hezekiel c. 550 BCE) used the word ELOHIM as a generic name for the clan god of Yisro'el (at least until Exod chapter 3 when the name YHWH is revealed - but his Hezekielite 'bablylonian' paleoHebrrew style otherwise is easily identifiable after Exod chapter 3, the burning bush myth).

Maybe Sigmundus can explain it to you.

Read it again. Joseph's children got the land he paid for with 100 pieces of silver. Not the land that he weaseled out of Esau, by lying to and tricking his father.
